The course will run for 7 weeks. Her book published in 2014 by Redemption Press, has already been taught in several national locations and continues to inspire both readers and teachers.

Here are several testimonials from readers and students of the class.

Organize His Way has made me aware that clutter blocks our blessings. Initially, the more we decrease our belongings, the more we increase our peace. Ultimately, the more we remove clutter, the more we hear God’s voice. It is all about relationships. The class has contributed to my own deeper walk with the Lord and has been an absolute blessing.
